Parting the Red Sea
God delivered the Israelites out of bondage from Egypt and miraculously parted the red sea so that they could escape from the clutches of Pharaoh’s soldiers. Parting the red sea as an idiom means a miraculous escape.
Example: The passengers of Air Asia were parting the Red Sea when their plane crash landed.
Israelites in their conflict with Arab Nations are experiencing parting the red sea in their every day walk of life.
Rod of Moses
We all know that God empowered Moses and Moses brought forth a serpent by casting the rod. The Pharaoh’s warlocks also did the same and when they cast the rod it also became Serpents. But then the serpent that Moses cast gobbled up the serpents of the sorcerers. As an idiom it means getting triumph over your enemies with divine providence.
Example: The Yom Kippur war won by the Israelites was a rod cast by Moses.
A rod cast by Moses will never go in vain.
In my life, I have to overcome my struggles by casting the Rod of Moses.
Prodigal Son
We all know the story of the prodigal son who took his inheritance and lived a profligate life and finally went into penury. Then he returned to the father and asked forgiveness and his father whole heartedly embraced him. As an idiom it means a kind hearted father who forgives all the transgressions of his children.
Example:
My father is a prodigal son.
